Good online steak dealer?

[slackerinabox]

I'm tired of paying through the nose for crappy steaks (the stuff is expensive in NYC).. anyone know of a good quality, affordable online meat dealer? I've used omaha and like the quality but the price is a bit too high.. I'm on atkins right now so want to buy a bulk quantity of porterhouse/tbones.. thanks!

For good steak don't you want to have the meat to age naturally?
Just curious + bumping

Look for No Name steaks at your grocery store. They are pretty good, and only around $10 - $15 for 6 steaks. They aren't real fancy, but they're always tender with excellent flavor.

Well, I prefer dry aged steaks.. The stuff that you get at grocery stores tend to be "wet aged" (or unaged).. My biggest "beef" (pardon the pun) with grocery beef is the high enedible fat (the hard stuff) ratio with the bulk meats (I bought a log of filet mignon that was 60% hard, gross fat). Precut steak is never thick enough for my tastes.. I wish my part of NY had butchers.. I'm jealous of my suburban sister's neigbhborhood - we picked up delicious. dry aged prime strip steaks for $5.00 a pound!

Omaha Steaks are okay as far as quality goes, but definitely overpriced....
